MongoDB Stitch – Serverless Platform

The MongoDB Stitch serverless platform accelerates application development with simple, secure access to data and services from the client – getting your apps to market faster while reducing operational costs and effort.

The Stitch serverless platform provides four services:

Stitch QueryAnywhere. Exposes the full power of working with documents in MongoDB and the MongoDB query language, directly from your web and mobile application frontend code. A powerful rules engine lets developers declare fine-grained security policies.

Stitch Functions. Allows developers to run simple JavaScript functions in Stitch’s serverless environment, making it easy to create secure APIs or to build integrations with microservices and server-side logic. Enables integration with popular cloud services such as Slack and Twilio, enriching your apps with a single Stitch method call.

Stitch Triggers. Real-time notifications that launch functions in response to changes in the database. The functions can make further database changes, push data to other places, or interact with users – such as through push notifications, text messages, or emails.

Stitch Mobile Sync (beta). Automatically synchronizes data between documents held locally in MongoDB Mobile and the backend database. MongoDB Mobile allows mobile developers to use the full power of MongoDB locally. Stitch Mobile Sync ensures that data is kept up to date across phones and all other clients in real time.
